For KVBPR, hosting an ongoing series of art exhibitions throughout their offices is an integral part of their goal to create a culture of innovation.

The Landmark Exhibition Series for 2007

Each exhibition at KVBPR includes up to four different artists or series, selected for designated locations within their corporate offices on the 21st floor of the L&C Tower. The 2007 exhibitions will be changed out in January, May, and September. Artwork included in these exhibits is available for purchase through The Arts Company.

Artwork featured in the current exhibit (OCT 2007-JAN 2008) includes:

Photography by John Nikolai

Hand-painted photography by Kimiko

Mixed-media paintings by Brad Wreyford

Oil paintings by Charles Keiger

Metal works by Brother Mel

Each artist and medium is selected for specific sites within the KVBPR office complex—from public spaces to conference areas, and even to a couple of designated gallery spaces that front office spaces. The exhibit selection and placement are designed to encourage fresh thinking in an aesthetically pleasing and changing work environment.

Clients and other guests are invited to stop by and view this new series of landmark art exhibitions and the culture of innovation in progress.

How This Business Alliance Came About

When Katcher Vaughn & Bailey Public Relations (KVBPR) decided to move to the landmark L&C Tower, the firm approached its downtown space on the 21st floor as an empty canvas on which to create a culture of innovation…a space to maximize collaboration and encourage creativity.

This culture of innovation includes bringing art out of the gallery setting and incorporating it into the everyday workplace to inspire and foster creative thinking and implementation.

By partnering with The Arts Company, KVBPR has added a compelling and creative visual component to its offices. The Landmark Exhibition Series also underscores KVBPR’s commitment to supporting the growth of the arts in Nashville by showcasing artists and introducing their work to colleagues, clients and friends who come to the space.

KVBPR’s commitment to an ongoing, yet changing, exhibition series also enables The Arts Company to extend their significant inventories of artwork into the corporate environment.
